[The proprietor of the Lafayette Place Turkish and Russian baths in New York says: " Florida cypress is by far the best of all woods for doors, window-casings, and sills. It should be thoroughly kiln-dried, then given several coats of the best linseed oil, and finished rough dry, no paint, no flannel covering. Georgia pine and other woods decay quickly. All woods will shrink a little, but Florida cypress will shrink the least and last the longest."]
